Paneer Pakora Recipe – Paneer Pakoda Recipe

Pakora is everyone’s favourite..Specially this one is yummy, it taste great and it so easy to make. I make this often for my little one, when i make for her, i skip the ketchup part and just fry the paneer dipped in the batter. I made this just for presentation and i found that the paneer taste is good when you apply ketchup onto them,

Paneer is a great source of protein in kids. Even if your kids dont drink milk, if they enjoy this paneer then you are saved. My little one loved paneer and i make this for her so often. And when you are making this for kids, try to make your own paneer and use it, it is much more healthy.

Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you..
